Ai, hoe jaloers is ek. Dankie vir die RR en mooi fotos.
Ons vriende het 'n plaas in daai omgewing en ons het darem al self daar rondgery.
My vriendin het die anderdag 44.5 grade op die plaas gemeet.

I left Gochas on Sunday morning. However, not before my brother in law phoned me from Windhoek asking to photograph all the electricity boxes and lines in Gochas. He is working on a project to upgrade the electricity supply and had to confirm a number of issues (of which I know absolutely nothing about!).
In Gochas, though, it is quiet and still on a Sunday morning.
I left Gochas to continue with the road in the Auab Valley towards Stampriet. The photo opportunities in this part of the world are endless. And I need to admit – I have a soft spot for a beautiful Camel Thorn tree (Acacia erioloba) and if you add an ADV to the scene you have, what I believe should be called, a picture perfect scene.
The scenery just keeps getting better and better.
Only the farmers will understand why you’ll always find the boerbokke in the road!
Somewhere on the road to Stampriet you turn away from the Auab river and you once again see the red dunes of the Kalahari.
Stampriet is a beautiful little town. It houses a relatively large Afrikaans Private School that most of the Afrikaans speaking kids in the southern part of Namibia attend. It is a real little oasis in the middle of the “desert” with a large supply of artesian water that allows for the production of veggies etc. The kids keep themselves busy in a constructive sort of way on a Sunday morning in Stampriet.
From Stampriet it was all the way to Rehoboth and from there about 80kms on tar towards Windhoek.
I eventually arrived at my sister’s home in Windhoek at around four. Monday saw me reporting for duty at UNNAM for two weeks of teaching – knowing that there is a weekend to enjoy in Namibia between the two weeks!
To be continued . . .

I also love those Camelthorn Trees. The old German " Hart wie Kameldornholtz ist unser Land" Anthem is a tribute to those magnificent Trees. And about those days that nothing much happens in Gochas we are talking about 24/7/365. It is like Maltahohe where I come from. :lol8:
